Ventis secundis, tene cursum.

The United States is violating international law by holding prisoners in its war on terror incommunicado and in secret hiding places, Pakistan on Tuesday successfully test-fired a medium-range, nuclear-capable missile that would be able to hit most cities in neighboring India, but defense officials said the test was not intended as a message to its South Asian rival. "The new version of the Ghauri V missile, which was test-fired today, has a range of 930 miles, and can hit most cities in India," a senior defense official told The Associated Press on condition of anonymity. The United States will put off major offensives against insurgent strongholds in Iraq — deemed crucial to the legitimacy of January elections — until after the Nov. 2 American vote, a newspaper reports. Commanders are not being told to stop operations, but no major new thrusts are planned. The Los Angeles Times reports administration officials say the delay is being observed because the offensives could impact the U.S. race. Waiting also gives negotiations with tribal leaders more time.
